rear end and suspension

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cl...DK4aAtGE8P8HAQ

Anybody ever use one of these or something like it? Id like to get one with lowering springs and put it in when I get my rear end rebuilt with new gears and axles.

I think that the departure from stock[or lack thereof] is not far enough from the stock set up for someone to outlay that kind of cash for not much difference in design. Jim

ya it has lowering blocks like hugger 6933 says not much of a difference from stock for that kind of money I'm sure you could find lowering blocks and u bolts way cheaper for the same effect

Re: rear end and suspension

I think that kit is more for converting from a leaf spring rear to coil rear than anything.
If you are only wanting to lower yours and already have rear coils just buy dropped coils and save a bunch of money.
